Michelle Rodriguez ain’t a lesbian, dammit (not that there’s anything wrong with that), 40 ain’t old, and date rape still ain’t funny. Yes, it’s The Week in Women, up now over at the Alliance of Women Film Journalists. Enjoy.
Friday fun! Here’s a screen capture from one of the DVDs in my collection (and it’s definitely from a movie, not a TV show). Guess the movie for fun and, well, fun. No prizes, just bragging rights. But hey: one guess per comment — no fair hogging all the guesses.
It’s cat-video Friday! The cute is brung. Oh man, that’s exactly how I fall asleep: I just collapse in the middle of doing other stuff. (via A Million Things That Bug Me, aka my semicousin Gail)
Take a break from work: watch a trailer… Yeah, not November, like it says at the end of this trailer. This was supposed to be released last fall, and there’s a lot of wondering about why it wasn’t. And lemme tell ya, I saw the film last night, and… wow. The year-end awards stuff for … more…

Bush: it was well underway in the 1990s, when our police went paramilitary in the “war on drugs” and new federal incentives for local communities to get drug convictions — however they could — led to a huge increase in … more…
No, it’s not about cybernetic Hannah Montana fans: It’s part of a project by Kacie Kinzer about social interaction and cooperation and helpfulness and what altruism we upright simians might extend to tiny adorable slightly anthropomorphic cardboard robots. I damn near cried reading about the project at Tweenbots. (Thanks to my semicousin Gail for pointing … more…
President Obama may have us all feeling more confident that the collapse of civilization because of credit swap defaults — instead of the way-cooler zombie apocalypse or ape uprising The Movies had promised us — has been headed off for the moment, but that don’t mean a penny saved ain’t still a penny saved.
